Bruce Hornsby - Stander On The Mountain Live Lyrics

Stander On The Mountain (Live) Song Lyrics
Stander On The Mountain (Live) by Bruce Hornsby And he stands at the banquet room bar
Looking over the crowd
The reunion band playing too loud
And he sees his fellow old star
Looks him up and down
Sees a little of himself in his frown, yeah

The stander on the mountain
Looking for the fountain
To drink some, to think some
About the old days

Big man around town
Nothing could be found
Of the old days, the old ways
When he was the one
And the stander on the mountain runs

Let us sit and talk of old times
Well, that's what we're supposed to do here
And you don't look a day over twenty-two, thirty-two, yeah
Yes, we were so funny and wild
Well, there's an old friend of mine
He says I'm looking back most all the time, okay

The stander on the mountain
Listens to the sound
To drink some, to think some
About the old days

King of the mountain
Nothing could be found
Of the old ways, the old days
When he was the one
And the stander on the mountain runs
King of the hill runs away

Oh, she's knocking on your door tonight
Oh, she wants to see if she remembers right
Hey, won't you come outside tonight, alright
They drive to the lookout on the hill

When it was over
Sat there and looked back
All was way in the distance
Tomorrow was a long time away
Nobody thought much about it
Nothing wrong if we live for today

I recall when you filled it on up
And you bowed to the basketball crowd
The girls in the short skirts screaming loud

The stander on the mountain
Looking for the fountain
To drink some, to think some
About the old days, hey yeah

Big man around town
Nothing could be found
From the old ways, the old days
When he was the one
And the stander on the mountain runs

[Incomprehensible] runs away, runs away
Oh, runs away, he runs away, runs away
